Going home and aftercare

Once your stay with us is complete and your consultant agrees that you are well enough to go home to carry on recovering, you will be discharged. This will be a straightforward process but you may find this further information useful.

Your doctor may write a prescription for medications to take home with you. These will be dispensed by the pharmacy and a pharmacist will talk to you about how to take them correctly and tell you about any possible side effects.

Please remember that if you are paying for your own treatment, or if you are sponsored by an insurance company, you will be asked to pay for the medicines you take home with you.

We discharge patients at 10am. Please call or ask your nurse to call reception to arrange a hospital porter if you need help with your baggage.
